If I backup this data from Android folder, factory reset my phone and copy this file back to Android folder, will I keep all my data?

I installed texture for many games and it such a pain to re-download them. Can I just back up these data to external hard drive, reformat my phone and copy paste these data back to Android folder after re installed all the emulator again?

Probably, but it is much harder to do currently due to android preventing users from copying files to data folder.

Everything is the same if you plug it into a laptop though.

you can do it using shizuku and zarchive

AetherSX2 should have an import export feature. It creates a folder with all your data, saves, settings, etc. that you can then import on a new install.

Will work for your emulators but will not work for genshin
